At the website of The National Stage the following, among other things, is written about Forever Sunday:

"The production Forever Sunday is based on Linnéa Myhre's best-selling novel by the same title. It is a diary about survival. Lina's outlook at her life is recognisable and filled with irony and a dark sense of humour. We are given a tough, self-exposing portrait of a person, how one can be when being alone with one's thoughts and emotions, feeling no need to idealise reality.

(...)

The blogger Lina receives awards and mingles with celebrities. She is given free Champagne and is hugged by (TV host) Lindmo. But Lina is waiting for everything to pass. She counts minutes until she can allow herself something to eat, until she can take medication to sleep, until the day is over. Until the days are over. She doesn't feel valuable or important - just empty."
